Air Live Router WL-5460AP User Manual

							1. LAN Output Rate: This is the speed of the traffic out of the LAN port.    In gateway 
mode, the LAN Output Rate includes both the wired LAN and WLAN interface. 
2. WLAN Output Rate: This is the speed of the traffic out of the Wireless LAN 
3. WAN Output Rate: This is the speed of the traffic out of the WAN port.    In WISP 
mode, the WAN Output Rate also includes the WLAN interface. 
 
The AP’s Web UI will tell you which types of output rate it supports, it differs in each 
wireless mode. 
 
 
In the following example: 
z  The AP is in Gateway Mode 
z  The WAN Output Rate is 128K 
z  The LAN/WLAN Output Rate is 1024K 
In this setup, the notebook users get an upstream bandwidth of 128K and downstream 
bandwidth of 1024K. 
 
 
 
 
Configure the Traffic Control QoS 
From the Mode Setting page, please choose the “Traffic Control(QoS)” on the bottom of the 
list.  
						

							 
 
Once you click on the “setup” button, a new window will pop-up with the Traffic Control 
settings.    They are divided into “A”, “B”, “C”, “D” section for further explanations. 
 
 
This section is the “Interface 
Control” session.  You must 
disable the “interface Traffic 
Control” if you want to use the 
“IP/MAC Traffic Control” 
This section is for defining the 
“Policy” of “Individual IP/MAC 
Traffic Control”.  Once a policy 
is defined, it can be chosen as 
template in IP/MAC Traffic 
Control Settin

address.

A. Interface Control Settings:  
 
 
In the Interface Control Settings, the AP only controls the total bandwidth limit of an 
interface. For example, if you want to limit the output data rate of the LAN to 512K and the 
output data rate of WLAN to 1024K.    You should 
perform the following steps: 
1.  Enable the “Interface Traffic Control 
2.  Enter “512” in the “LAN Output Rate” 
3.  Enter “1024” in the “WLAN Output Rate” 
4.  Click on “Save” 
5. Reboot the AP. 
   
B. Define Policy 
A policy is a set of bandwidth rules that can be used as a template.    For example, if you 
want to provide 2 kinds of bandwidth 
speed to the users: 
z VIP Subscriber: 
„  LAN Out Rate: 512 Kbps 
„  WLAN Out Rate: 1024 Kbps 
z Regular Subscriber: 
„  LAN Out Rate: 64 Kbps 
„  WLAN Out Rate: 512 Kbps 
 
You can configure the bandwidth rule as policies “VIP” and “Regular”. 
 
 
Please follow the step below to create a new policy “VIP” 
1.  Enter “VIP” for the “PolicyName”  
						

							2.  Enter “512” for the “LAN Out Rate” 
3.  Enter “1024” for the “WLAN Out Rate” 
4. Enter “VIP Subscriber” for the “Comment” 
5.  Click on “Save” button 
6.  Now the “VIP” policy will show up in the “Current Policy Table” 
 
Once finished, the administrator will be able to choose the policy “VIP” for their IP/MAC 
Traffic Control. 
 
C.  Bandwidth Control by IP address 
You can set the maximum bandwidth of a PC or a subscriber by using the IP Control.     
 
Please follow the procedure below to setup IP Traffic Control 
1.  Please make sure the “Interface Traffic Control” is disabled 
2.  Before you start, please check the following area to see which client IPs are supported.   
It differs between each mode. 
 
 
3.  Enable the IP Control 
4.  If you have defined a Policy already, please choose a Policy name.    The “Out Rates” 
will be automatically pasted from the Policy template.    You cannot change the Out 
Rates if you have chosen a Policy 
5.  If you want to define new Data Rate, please do not choose any policies.    Then you 
can enter the values in the “LAN”, “WLAN”, or “WAN” Out Rates. 
6.  Press “Save” to save settings 
7. Reboot your AP. 
 
 
* If you want to control the traffic flow between the IPs in the same interface, please make sure both IPs are 
configured for the IP Traffic Control. 
 
D.  Bandwidth Control by MAC address 
You can set the maximum bandwidth of a PC or a subscriber by using the MAC Control.     
Please check this part to find out what IP addresses 
are supported.    It varies between each mode  
						

							 
Please follow the procedure below to setup MAC Traffic Control 
1.  Please make sure the “Interface Traffic Control” is disabled 
2.  Before you start, please check the following area to see which client MACs are 
supported.  It differs between each mode. 
3.  Enable the MAC Control 
 
 
4.  If you have defined a Policy already, please choose a Policy name.    The “Out Rates” 
will be automatically pasted from the Policy template.    You cannot change the Out 
Rates if you have chosen a Policy 
5.  If you want to define new Data Rate, please do not choose any policies.    Then you 
can enter the values in the “LAN”, “WLAN”, or “WAN” Out Rates. 
6.  Press “Save” to save settings 
7. Reboot your AP. 
 
* If you want to control the traffic flow between MAC addresses in the same interface, please make sure both 
MAC addresses are configured for the MAC Traffic Control. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Please check this part to find out what IP addresses 
are supported.    It varies between each mode  
						

							Application Example 
Example1: AP Mode Traffic Control 
 
In this example, the AP is installed outdoor to provide Internet service.    There are 2 
different type of Internet service offered by the WISP: 
z VIP Service: 
„  Upstream Data Rate: 512 Kbps 
„  Downstream Data Rate: 1024 Kbps 
z Regular Service: 
„  Upstream Data Rate: 64 Kbps 
„  Downstream Data Rate: 512 Kbp 
 
The Subscriber’s information is as followed: 
„ Subscriber A 
z VIP Service 
z  MAC Address of the PC or Wireless Client: 00:04:6F:11:11:11 
„ Subscriber B 
z Regular Service 
z  MAC Address of the PC or Wireless Client: 00:04:6A:88:88:88 
 
 
 
Step-by-Step Configuration 
1.  Please disable the “Interface Traffic Control” 
2.  On the Policy, please add the “VIP” and “Regular” policies as shown on the graph 
below 
  
						

							 
 
3.  Please enable the “MAC Control”   
4.  Please fill in the 2 entries as shown on the graphic below 
 
 
5. Reboot the AP 
  
						

							Example2: Client Mode Traffic Control 
 
In the following example, the AP is used as the wireless client to the WISP Service.    The 
Service provider need to restrict the bandwidth of the AP to 1024K Downstream and 128K 
Upstream. 
 
 
Step-by-Step Configuration 
 
 
 
1.  Please enable the “Interface Traffic Control” 
2.  Enter “1024” in the “LAN Output Rate” field 
3.  Enter “128” in the “WLAN Output Rate” field 
4. Press “Save” 
5. Reboot the AP
